    Dot shop

    Looks like Federal ammunition is getting hit with one of those .shop site scams on facebook. Be cautious.

    New dress for old girlfriend!

    I bought a bell and Carlson with aluminum bedding block for my Model 70 classic in 7mm mag. The original wood stock grouped better than the synthetic. Skim bedding the stock may help the B&C group better but I haven't gotten around to it.

    Reloader 16 powders

    I found Re 16 works great in 270 Win and 130 gr Partition. Velocity 3100 or so in 22" barrel and good groups. I also use in 243 win with 70gr BT. 3640 fps and small groups. It also gives very good accuracy in 220 swift and 55gr bullets but not top velocity. That's all I've done wit Re 16...

    Tisas 1911 A1 Tank Commander 9mm

    The FBI adopted the 9mm +p Hornady Critical Duty 135gr for their agents. The results of the FBI test protocols can be seen at Hornady web site. I have not fired any of this ammo so can't speak first hand.

    Tisas 1911 A1 Tank Commander 9mm

    When I exhaust my supply of Hydra shok ammo I plan on taking a look at the Hornady critical duty 135 gr 9mm. It too has passed all the penetrative and barrier tests.

    Tisas 1911 A1 Tank Commander 9mm

    I like that 1911 holster and use the same made by Galco and called the Avenger. It is also called an Askins Avenger. I also use a Tagua belt slide holster that has a sweat guard, it is very comfortable and can be concealed by a shirt tail. They don't make the same item anymore but the...

    Tisas 1911 A1 Tank Commander 9mm

    I too have transitioned to 9mm 1911 for my EDC to reduce the discomfort in my old hands. Though, the 124 gr +p+ Federal hydra shok I carry is still a tad harsh. Same with the 124 gr ammo that's labeled NATO at 1200 fps. I prefer the 115 gr standard fmj for practice and banging steel. I don't...

    I want a 365 but the GS wouldn't take a trade for a Glock 43.

    Reviving the 300 Win Mag / 200 Accubonds

    With all this talk of 338s and 375s it's curious to note that the 224 Texas Trophy Hunter was created to shoot Nilgai in south Texas.

    Turkeys, turkeys everywhere!

    When I was a kid, we had a place to hunt in the Texas hill country. Across the canyon I hunted was a stand of very old and large live oak trees. Generally there would be a hundred or more turkeys roasted there. As soon as the sun hit the trees they'd fly from the roost and scatter out into...
